[ecrea] vacancy ,for a Design Researcher

At the Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences (HvA) we have a vacancy
for a Design Researcher (0.6 fte), within the Media, Creation and
Information Knowledge Centre.

The research project is part of the Amsterdam Creative Industries
Network programme at the Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences, and
more specifically at the Interaction & Games Lab. The Play and Civic
Media lectureship, under which this position falls, focuses on research
into digital and nondigital play and urban interaction design that
optimizes the user experience.

The most important question addressed by this research is how design
thinking, strategies, tools and software can be implemented to increase
the effectiveness of game, play and other forms of urban interaction and
self organisation. This can cover learning goals within educational
processes, behavioural change in health care, or attitudinal change with
regard to all kinds of societal issues. The findings of this research
are of great importance to the Dutch gaming industry.

Researchers working within the lectureship and at the Lab are expected
to be actively involved in networking and maintaining contacts within
the industry, formulating relevant research questions and providing
feedback on the results. Incorporating new insights within the
university curriculum is also part of the role. The researcher will
conduct research independently, supervise other researchers, and play an
active role in projects that are conducted as part of the lectureship at
the Lab. He or she is responsible for securing external funding for new
projects, and is able to define, control and structure his or her own
research projects.
